It feels uncomfortable to leave a negative review for a company that has received all glowing reviews in the past. But, this is what I went through, so this is my truth. I moved two cars with them. Pick up and delivery was prompt. Gus, the driver seemed really nice. Since I had a nice experience with him while loading cars, I trusted him for being an honest guy. BIG MISTAKE. The alloy wheel on one car was badly scratched, as if it had hit against the metal platform on which cars are hauled. I should have noticed it upon delivery, but I noticed it a couple of days after. The car was not driven since delivery, and I was cleaning it up. I called them up and sent them pictures of damage. Guess what - Tim (Timothy Crock - the owner) turned it around and blamed me for damaging my own car! I told them that I had not driven the car since delivery, but once they had the money, who cares. Even Gus didn't have the integrity to admit that it could have been a mistake. Downright DISHONEST people, especially Tim. Avoid them like plague!

A couple of notes on this transport. 1. The customer signed off on our BOL that there was no damage at delivery. 2. The customer noticed the damage 3 days later. There is no grace period on damage claims. 3. The customer NEVER called our office or me (Tim) to try to get any results. Instead he called the driver and tried to get results through him. 4. We never blamed anyone for the damage as the customer says. 5. We agreed to pay for the wheel repair of $137 and did even though we did not do the damage to avoid a negative review like this one. The customer was supposed to remove it per our agreement with him & the BBB but has yet to remove this one. Do what you wish with this info. We are an Upbeat company that does good business.
